Manufacturing organizations can struggle with the rapidly growing volumes of data that they create when designing and producing their products.Industry analysts research shows that producers who are implementing effective data management solutions are:
Scalable simulation software changes the shape of design

Solid Edge Simulation
Built-in finite element analysis (FEA) allows design engineers to digitally validate part and assembly designs within the Solid Edge environment. Solid Edge Simulation significantly reduces the need for physical prototypes, which lowers your material and testing costs, and saves design time.

Solid Edge FloEFD
Fully embedded in Solid Edge, FLOEFD enables design engineers to frontload computational fluid dynamics (CFD) analysis or move simulation early into the design process where it can help examine trends and eliminate less desirable design options.

Femap
Affordable high-performance FEA modeling for the engineering desktop. Femap is recognized as the world’s leading CAD-independent Windows-native pre- and post-processor for advanced engineering finite element analysis.
